Summary

McIntyre Comprehensive Academy is a small public school in Montgomery, AL, serving 212 students in grades 6 through 12 within the Montgomery County school district.

McIntyre faces severe academic challenges that set it apart from nearly every other school in the area. The school ranks 379th out of 380 high schools in Alabama, placing it in the bottom 1% statewide. Its graduation rate of 48.6% is dramatically lower than nearby Carver Senior High School (82.7%) and far below the district average of 80.4%. On state assessments, McIntyre reports 0% proficiency in core subjects like math and English across multiple grade levels—meaning no students tested at grade level. This is even more striking when compared to other struggling schools in the district, like Percy Julian High School (ranked 367th) and Johnson Abernathy Graetz High School, which show at least single-digit proficiency rates. The school spends $38,362 per student—nearly four times more than Park Crossing High School ($9,748) and over three times more than the top-ranked Loveless Academic Magnet Program High School ($9,652)—yet achieves the lowest outcomes in the region.

There are a few bright spots worth noting. The graduation rate has shown a modest upward trend, rising from 37.5% in 2021-2022 to 48.6% in 2024-2025, suggesting recent interventions may be helping some students stay on track. Chronic absenteeism also dropped from 36.1% to 21.5% in the latest year, though it remains nearly double the state average. The school's small size, high per-pupil spending, and 6-12 grade span suggest it serves as an alternative setting for students who have not succeeded in traditional schools. With 85.85% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, the population faces significant economic challenges. While the school is not effectively serving any demographic group—rankings for male students, low-income students, and African American students all fall in the bottom percentiles—the slight improvement in graduation rates offers a glimmer of hope that systemic changes could eventually lead to better outcomes.
